Flexible nano coating with significantly enhanced electrical, thermal and semiconductor properties

A method of enhancing the conductivity of a surface comprising:

• (a) applying a conductive coating to the surface;
• wherein the conductive coating comprises
• from about 85 wt-% to about 96 wt-% a fluid component comprising a polymer;
• wherein the polymer is a self-curing polymer, a thermoset polymer, or a thermoplastic polymer;
• wherein the polymer comprises polyacrylic acid, polyurethane, epoxy, or a mixture thereof, wherein the fluid component comprises a polymer and wherein the fluid component comprises one or more of a second functional group capable of forming a hydrogen bond;
• and
• from about 0.5 wt-% to about 10 wt-% a carbon nanomaterial;
• wherein the nanomaterial is a carbon nanomaterial having one or more of a first functional group capable of forming a hydrogen bond or a boron nanomaterial;
• and
• wherein the nanomaterial is dispersed within the fluid component;
• (b) curing the conductive coating to form a cured conductive coating;
• wherein the cured conductive coating is flexible and does not crack;
• and wherein the conductive coating's resistance is lower than the fluid component by at least about 10% when measured under the same conditions;
• and
• wherein the surface is a part of an aircraft.
